UBC's Community Bike Shop
We provide students & the wider community with an accessible environment where they can learn to fix bicycles or get their bike fixed
A number of partner organizations will be set up with booths to discuss their initiatives, and to empower folks to begin developing their own repair skills.
Vegan friendly snacks, networking, and prizes are included! ๐
The BK team is excited to announce that we will be hosting The Right to Repair, a sustainability forum with UBC Connects at UBC Robson Square on Saturday, July 29th! ๐ฃ๏ธ๐ง๐
RSVP https://t.co/XtYBQ5zz0L
Alongside the panel discussion attendees will be invited to further engage with a range of topics in small breakout workshops led by facilitators. Learn & discuss about the politics of repair, cultures of repair, how industry & economics influences the cost of repair, & more! ๐ก

Getting more people on bicycles means less traffic by having less cars on the road as well as more seats available on buses! Whether or not youโre a cyclist, support for a crucial UBC resource will mean a healthy, happier and safer student body.
